Ayatollah Hermione 13869 Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 Couple of weeks left, may as well get it all in one place. I'll use my expert knowledge to bring you the only preview you need/ I don't know how the brackets will work out but I'm assuming that, if France win their group, UEFA have made sure they only have to play the Wigan Under 21s or something similarly easy so I'm being obvious and making them one of the favourites. Spain have left behind all those snide little arseholes you see playing in England every week and replaced them with snide little arseholes who play in Spain every week. The Germans could throw a dart at 23 players and get to the Semis. Can Belgium successfully bore teams into submission? Poland, Croatia, Austria and Portugal are all supposed to be canny sides according to the Euro 2016 World Soccer preview so bang a fiver on one of them knocking England out. Italy called up Davide Santon recently so they can't be any good. Both Irelands are going. Northern Ireland is full of lads we'll be playing against next season and the Republic is made up entirely of players who play for Stoke and Bournemouth, probably. We have a game against Gareth Bale, Aaron Ramsey and 9 other lads. Right, there you go. Kicks off on Friday 10th with Albania vs. France. Probably ends with Hodgson getting sacked.

Kid Dynamite 7030 Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 Dummett dropped. Shame for the lad, I don't believe there are 6 better defenders in the country than him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Kelly 1245 Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 I'm going over to France for a couple of weeks and I've got tickets for the big game, Iceland vs Austria, in Paris. And another game in Lyon between Slovakia and England. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howay 12496 Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 To be fair with the defence we have and the fact Hodgson keeps trying to just force his favorites into the XI it might be worth a bet. I think the team is good enough to get out but wont get much further, I have no faith in Hodgson though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Gloom 21924 Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 I can see us struggling again. Hodgson reverting to type and picking dull favoured players who have been poor or injured. What's the odds of Wilshere, Milner and Henderson starting in midfield with Rooney up front? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't forget Jack Wilshere hitting the front page of The Sun two weeks into the tournament after being caught smoking a baguette outside a Marseille nightclub.

ImpossiblyDaft 1 Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 (edited) We have a game against Gareth Bale, Aaron Ramsey and 9 other lads. "9 other lads"??? You're selling possibly the best gurner in world football short... The fact that none of Drinkwater, Noble, Antonio or Albrighton are going is absurd. That'd probably be a better midfield 4 than what you could make out of the squad. Edited May 31, 2016 by ImpossiblyDaft Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McFaul 35 Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 Just done the Euro's on a set spread sheet. England knocked out on Penalties by France in Le Stade de France in Paris in the Quarter Finals on Penalties. Two group 0-0 draws with Russia and Slovakia don't help matters but a 2-1 against the sheep shaggers lets us scrape through. The French lose their Semi against Germany on pens, and the Krauts go on to beat Spain 1-0 in the Final. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rayvin 5223 Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 Not sure the Germans will win it tbh, they've been poor recently (by their standards). Reckon this is the kind of tournament where England could have a chance if we weren't so shit at internationals. As it is, I reckon Portugal, Croatia or Belgium. Teams from that standing, just below the heavyweights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
